Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions.
When it comes to marriage the timing is not the same for everyone. Although society usually puts
pressure on individuals to get married and start a family early, over the years, people have had many
reasons to get married later in life. All over the world, people of all genders have more access to higher
education now than ever. This results in people choosing to focus on their careers and delaying marriage.
Also, the fact that many young people start living alone at an early age makes them develop high levels
of independence. As a result, they do not see the need to commit to a partner. Women in particular no
longer feel the urge to get married fast. They instead spend more of their youthful days pursuing
opportunities to become more financially independent.
Financial stability is also a factor. A lot of people in their twenties are not financially stable enough to
run a home and fulfill the responsibilities that come with starting a family - after all, simply organizing
a wedding is already quite an expensive effort. That much financial pressure can be detrimental to most
relationships. As a result, many people decide to wait until they are financially ready before tying the
knot. Nowadays, many couples prefer to live together before getting married, which provides an
opportunity to experience marriage life without commitment and to figure out whether they really suit
each other. This is especially made possible as a modern society now accepts these sorts of living
arrangements

of the questions from 31 to 35.
When your child was younger, your role was to lay the foundations for his behaviour. For example, you
probably showed your child how to cooperate and take turns with others. Now your child is in his teens,
he can start taking responsibility for his own behaviour. But you're still an important role model.
What you do shows your child how you want her to behave. For example, how you cope with feelings
like frustration and distress influences how your child regulates her emotions. What you eat, how much
you exercise, and how you look after yourself all influence your child. What you say is also important.
You can help your child to manage and control his behaviour by talking about how behaviour affects
other people. You can also talk more with your child about the differences between right and wrong.
Now's a good time for this because your child is developing his ability to understand other people's
experiences and feelings.
You might think that your child's peers and friends have a stronger influence in the teenage years than
you do. Friends and peers do influence your child, but so do you - it's just that peer influence is different
from your influence. Your child’s friends are more likely to influence everyday behaviour, like the music
your child listens to or the clothes he wears. As a parent, you influence your child’s basic values, like
religious values, and issues related to her future, like
educational choices. And the stronger your relationship with your child, the more influence you’ll
have. That's because your child values your good opinion, advice and support. In fact, it’s likely that
when your child becomes a young adult, he’ll end up with values, beliefs and behaviour that are similar
to yours.

A group of researchers and experts in America and Australia listed 12 countries affecting
considerably to the ocean by the year 2018 and the Southeast Asia area has up to 5 representatives:
Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. China ranks first with nearly 8.8 million
plastic waste, and Vietnam ranks fourth with 1.8 million. It is really alarming that developing countries
are the main causes of environmental pollution in 10 recent years. A terrible fact that probably occur by
2050 is that the ocean contains much more waste than sea creatures if the plastic waste situation is still
continuing, according to the United Nations report. In addition, the unexpected fact is that it takes only
5 seconds to produce a plastic bag, 1 second to throw, but up to 500 or even 1000 years to decompose.
A reason for water pollution in Vietnam is that many companies and enterprises cannot manage
rubbish and then pour waste into rivers and streams, which the government cannot control at all.
Meanwhile, rivers and streams are two main sources of water for use.
As a result, in many places in Vietnam, especially remote areas, people get diseases like cholera,
diarrhea or skin diseases by having to use water from rivers and streams. The basic reason is that many
households are not supplied with piped water and hygienic latrines, so they do not have water to use or
do not have a water filtration system. Also, many people take the water from hand-dug wells that are not
surely clean. In another hand, many marine creatures died from water pollution due to its heavy
chemicals.
It is constantly urgent for the government and businesses to take responsibility for water pollution.
The government should have new strict laws to prevent companies from pouring wastes into the water
and manage better-piped water systems in many areas.

With each passing day, the population is increasing. With that, the quantity of waste produced is

Have you ever felt that there aren't enough hours in the day? These days we have to do our jobs,
look after our homes, save energy to help the environment, and do exercise to stay healthy! Like many
of us, Alex Gadsden never had enough time. He ran a business and a home and needed to lose weight.
So he decided to do something about it. He invented the cycle washer. The 29-year-old now starts each
day with a 45-minute cycle ride. He not only feels healthier but he saves on his energy bills and does the
washing too.
He said, "It gives the user a good workout. I’ve only used it for two weeks but I’ve already noticed
a difference.” "I tend to get up at around six-thirty now and get straight on the cycle washer. I keep it in
the garden, so it’s nice to get out in the fresh air. Afterward, I feel full of energy. Then I generally have
breakfast and a shower and I really feel ready to start the day." The green washing machine uses 25 liters
of water a wash, and takes enough clothes to fill a carrier bag. He normally cycles for 25 minutes to
wash the clothes, and then for another 20 minutes to dry them. And it doesn't use any electricity, of
course. Mr. Gadsden, the boss of a cleaning company, believes his machine could become very popular.
With an invention which cleans your clothes, keeps you fit and reduces your electricity bill, he may well
be right.

The sound of music has changed as society has changed over the years, thus the change in the sound
of music is really a reflection of our cultural evolution. In the beginning, humans made music that closely
mimicked the sounds they heard around them in nature in terms of tones and repetitions.
In Indigenous cultures, music played a role in ceremonies and traditions. Traditional instruments
were played, and lyrics were often strongly linked to nature. The sounds of music reflected the close
association that indigenous cultures had with the land and its wildlife. Over time, modern society has
lost this connection. This is reflected in the changing sound of the music and in the changing lyrics of
songs that are sung. With time, more musical instruments were developed and played together, which
resulted in more sophisticated and complex sounds being produced. The beats, rhythms, tempo and lyrics
of songs all changed along with the change in cultures.
Although some indigenous cultures such as many of the African tribes, Native American tribes,
South American ethnic people, and Australian aborigines still retain the playing of their indigenous
music, there have been influences from the western world incorporated into some of the music. Features
of the sound of music have changed over the decades. The sound has definitely gotten louder. The pace
and rhythm in many cases have become faster, possibly reflecting the fast pace of the modern world that
we live in today. However, the feature of music bounciness (how spiky and energetic the music feels)
has become less today when compared with the music of thel980s. Techno and reggae music are typical
examples of what is known as bouncy music.
The sound of music has become more complex over history mainly due to the increased migration
of people and their exposure to new elements. Today much music has sounds with elements from more
than one region. The increasing tendency for music artists to collaborate today is another reason we see
more complexity and diversity in how music sounds.

Music is one of the human species' relatively few (26) ______ abilities. Without formal training, any
individual, from Stone Age tribesmen to suburban teenagers, has the ability to recognize music and, in
some fashion, to make it. Why this should be so is a mystery. After all, music isn't necessary for getting
through the day, and if it aids in reproduction, it does so only in highly indirect ways. Language, (27)
______ , is also everywhere - but for reasons that are more obvious. With language, you and the members
of your tribe can organize a migration across Africa, build reed boats and cross the seas, and
communicate at night even when you can’t see each other. Modern culture, in all its technological
extravagance, springs directly (28) ______ the human talent for manipulating symbols and syntax.
Scientists have always been (29) ______ by the connection between music and language. Yet over the
years, words and melody have acquired a vastly different status in the lab and the seminar room. While

Read the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.
BLUES MUSIC
The origin of blues is too unclear to pinpoint to one artist or one year; for the sake of historic
importance, it’s believed that blues music was created in the late 19th century, by the black slaves that
were forced to work in the cotton fields. Blues has firm roots in African traditional music.
The purpose of making the blues is always the same: the expression of intense emotions. It is the one
reason why this genre had such a profound effect on America, and eventually the world. Blues is usually
categorized by the location of a style, because everywhere the blues went, it caught a different feel.
Mississippi delta blues came from the Mississippi delta region. It's the oldest known form of blues as
a genre, from which other forms later evolved. Chicago blues came next, when the delta musicians
started traveling to the big city to look for a better life. The biggest difference between the two styles is
the use of electric guitars and a slightly faster pace in the latter. Texas blues came out after America saw
how big Chicago blues was getting. The style was made famous by artists like Lightnin' Hopkins and
Freddie King.
Blues rock was one of the last big blues styles to hit it big. It's largely inspired by the Chicago blues
and started in the 1960s by bands like Creedence Clearwater Revival and ZZ Top.

Plastic bags are used by everybody. From a vegetable vendor to a designer store, everyone seems
to use them. Even though they are one of the modern conveniences that we seem to be unable to do
without, they are responsible for causing pollution, killing wildlife, and using up the precious resources
of the Earth. But, most of us are blissfully unaware of the repercussions that are occurring and will take
place in the future because of plastic bags.
Every once in a while, the government passes out an order banning store owners from providing
plastic bags to customers for carrying their purchases, with little lasting effect. Plastic bags are very
popular with both retailers as well as consumers because they are cheap, strong, lightweight, functional,
as well as a hygienic means of carrying food as well as other goods. About a hundred billion plastic bags
are used every year in the U.S. alone. And then, when one considers the huge economies and populations
of India, China, Europe, and other parts of the world, the numbers can be staggering. The problem is
further exacerbated by the developed countries shipping off their plastic waste to developing countries
like India.
Once they are used, most bags go into landfills. Each year, more and more bags are ending up
littering the environment. Once they become litter, plastic bags find their way into our waterways, parks,
beaches, and streets. And, if they are burned, they infuse the air with toxic fumes. About 100,000
animals, such as dolphins, turtles, whales, and penguins are killed every year due to these bags. Many
animals ingest plastic bags, mistaking them for food, and therefore, die. And worse, the ingested plastic
bag remains intact even after the death and decomposition of the animal. Thus, it lies around in the
landscape where another victim may ingest it. One of the worst environmental effects is that they are
non-biodegradable. The decomposition takes about 400 years. No one will live so long to witness the
decomposition of plastic! Thus, save the environment for future generations as well as animals.
Petroleum products are diminishing and getting more expensive by the day, since we have used this
non-renewable resource increasingly. And to make plastic, about 60-100 million barrels of oil are needed
every year around the world. Surely, this precious resource should not be wasted on producing plastic
bags, should it? Petroleum is vital for our modern way of life. It is necessary for our energy requirements
- for our factories, transportation, heating, lighting, and so on. Without viable alternative sources of
energy yet on the horizon, if the supply of petroleum were to be turned off, it would lead to practically
the entire world grinding to a halt.
So, what can be done? A tote bag can make a good substitute for carrying groceries and shopping.
You can keep the bag with the cashier, and then put your purchases into it instead of the usual plastic
bag. Recycling the bags you already have is another good idea. These can come into use for various
purposes, like holding your garbage, instead of purchasing new ones. While governments may be
working out ways to lessen the impact of plastic bags on the environment; however, each of us should
shoulder some of the responsibility for this problem, which ultimately harms us. Plastics are not only
non-biodegradable, but are one of the major pollutants of the sea. For a clean and green environment,
try to use alternatives to plastic whenever and wherever possible. Cut down your use of plastic, and do
your bit to save our planet.

"A lot of organizations rely on retired seniors,” says Jobelle Duka, the volunteer manager at Central
California Food Bank, in Fresno, Calif. If you need volunteers during a pandemic, you'll most likely
have to find new, younger ones without the kind of pre-existing health conditions that make people
particularly vulnerable to an outbreak.
In recent weeks, the food bank has seen a 50 percent increase in the number of visitors. Duka used
to need 10 volunteers a day; she now requires 30. After the governor issued a statewide shelter-in-place
order, Duka started calling around to organizations that had volunteers they could no longer use, like
hospices and hospitals. She reached out to nearby colleges, churches and the local emergency services
office, which assigned her 12 AmeriCorps members. Duka now has wait lists for every volunteer shift.
Don’t turn people away because of age. "The only age requirement we have is that you can’t be
under 5,” Duka says. If people over 65 want to assist, figure out ways to protect them by assigning work
they can do from home, like data entry. "Let whole families help,” says Duka, who has seen a significant
uptick in families coming into the warehouse to fill boxes and sort through donated produce. Ask parents
to make sure their children wash their hands, wear masks and gloves and keep away from others. "Ten-
year-olds are actually really helpful," Duka says. "That’s the age when they can start listening and
following directions.”
Match type of volunteer to the job. Teenagers and children are more likely to enjoy unpleasant tasks
that many adults find off-putting, like sorting putrid oranges from good ones, an assignment Duka
almost never gives to financial donors. Reliable, healthy young adults should take on riskier jobs like
distributing food to the hungry. Accept that most new volunteers won’t stay. Eventually, children will
go back to school, parents will return to workplaces and you’ll be left with the demographic you
depended on before the pandemic: retired seniors. "Keep in touch with them," Duka says. "Let them
know you appreciate them and look forward to seeing them when this is all over.”

For years, charities across the globe have been encouraging students to join their volunteering
programmes to help make a difference in the world. Volunteers are an integral part of any charitable
organization; without them, there would be no charity. Not only can volunteering benefit a wealth of
causes, but it can also boost a student’s prospects once they head out into the working world.
Volunteering can be a humbling experience, allowing you to see the world in a different way.
Whether you agree to volunteer for a number of consecutive months or a day a week, the impact you
have could be life-changing. There’s also a strong sense of achievement and pride that comes with
generously giving up your time for a worthy cause.
When it comes to volunteering, there are countless opportunities at home or away. Many students
choose to volunteer abroad to experience a new culture and learn more about other countries. It can be
a wonderful way to experience another country, with support and guidance during the stay of the
organizations. Volunteering overseas involves more group-based work than volunteering at home. It
also gives students the opportunity to get away from their studies and work responsibilities.

While the debate regarding how much screen time is appropriate for children rages on among educators,
psychologists, and parents, it's another emerging technology in the form of artificial intelligence and
machine learning that is beginning to alter education tools and institutions and changing what the future
might look like in education. It is expected that artificial intelligence in U.S. education will grow by
47.5% from 2017-2021 according to the Artificial Intelligence Market in the US Education Sector report.
Even though most experts believe the critical presence of teachers is irreplaceable, there will be many
changes to a teacher’s job and to educational best practices.
AI has already been applied to education primarily in some tools that help develop skills and testing
systems. As AI educational solutions continue to mature, the hope is that AI can help fill needs gaps in
learning and teaching and allow schools and teachers to do more than ever before. AI can drive
efficiency, personalization and streamline admin tasks to allow teachers the time and freedom to provide
understanding and adaptability—uniquely human capabilities where machines would struggle. By
leveraging the best attributes of machines and teachers, the vision for AI in education is one where they
work together for the best outcome for students. Since the students of today will need to work in a future
where AI is the reality, it’s important that our educational institutions expose students to and use the
technology.
Artificial intelligence tools can help make global classrooms available to all including those who speak
different languages or who might have visual or hearing impairments. Presentation Translator is a free
plug-in for PowerPoint that creates subtitles in real time for what the teacher is saying. This also opens
up possibilities for students who might not be able to attend school due to illness or who require learning
at a different level or on a particular subject that isn't available in their own school. AI can help break
down silos between schools and traditional grade levels.

The 21st century has become another important century for inventions and discoveries. We are only
in the 2nd decade of this century currently but we have already witnessed many big innovations that have
drastically changed our way of living. Bluetooth technology, broadband internet, artificial heart, genetic
engineering, virtual reality, 3D printing are some to name a few. These inventions are changing the way
we live, do our things and communicate with others. Even though some of these developments are in
the early stage of innovation, they have a more sophisticated and promising future. Social media is one
of the most important aspects that has affected each person in this modern time.
According to Heidi Cohen, Social Media are the platforms that enable the interactive web by
engaging users to participate in, comment on and create content as means of communicating with their
social graph, other users and the public. The power of social media has changed most of the things in
our daily life. Social media has revolutionized and completely changed the way we send and receive
information. It is more interactive, can be done in real-time and uses a wide number of media like text,
audio, video, pictures, graphics and more. With these sites, sending and receiving messages offline and
in real-time, audio and video chatting, sharing pictures, video and text, going "Live” to many audiences,
meeting old friends and making new ones have revolutionized our way of establishing connections with
others.
There are also negative sides to the innovation of social media and its usage. An increase in
cybercrime, invasion of privacy, security threats, etc. are some of the issues associated with social
networks. But at the same time, social networks are working to cope with the increasing problems that
arise with the improper use of it. With more and more sophistication and versatility of use, social media
have undoubtedly proved to be a boon to connectivity and social interaction between people in this age
of communication and information technology.

Facebook users spend an average of more than 15 hours a month on social networking sites. While
there are plenty who caution against such intensive use - and there are a number of studies detailing the
harm Facebook could potentially cause - there also are lots of reports extolling the site's virtues. As the
social media giant prepares for its upcoming initial public offering, here are some ways Facebook just
might be good for you.
Spending time on Facebook can help people relax, slow down their heart rate and decrease stress
levels, according to researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of
Milan. In a study published earlier this year, researchers studied 30 students and found that a natural
high was sparked when they were on the social media network that led to relaxed heart rates and lower
levels of stress and tension. In the study, the students were monitored in three situations: looking at
panoramic landscapes, performing complicated mathematical equations and using Facebook. While the
first situation was the most relaxing for students and the math problems were the most stressful, the time
on Facebook uncovered high levels of attractiveness and arousal. The findings support the researchers’
hypothesis that Facebook's success, as well as that of other social media networks, correlates to the
specific positive mental and physical state users experience.
While many may argue that social media networks only distract employees, research shows the
opposite may be true. Research from Keas.com found that a 10-minute Facebook break makes
employees happier, healthier and more productive. The study examined workers in three groups: one
that was allowed no breaks, one that was allowed to do anything but use the Internet and one that was
allowed 10 minutes to use the Internet and Facebook. The Facebook group was found to be 16 percent
more productive than the group that was not allowed to use the Internet and nearly 40 percent more
productive than the group that was allowed no breaks. "Short and unobtrusive breaks, such as a quick
surf on the Internet, enables the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher net total concentration for a day's
work, and as a result, increased productivity," said Brent Coker of the department of management and
marketing at the University of Melbourne in Australia.
Facebook is also in the business of matchmaking. Research shows that nearly 60 percent of singles
will friend someone new on Facebook after meeting them in person. If they like what they see, 25 percent
are likely to contact their new love interest via Facebook. Once the courting is over, nearly 40 percent
of those social networking adults will update their relationship status on Facebook, with just 24 percent
telling their friends first. Facebook use between couples will continue through the dating process, the
research shows. Throughout the day, 79 percent of couples said they send partners Facebook messages
or chat on the social network. In addition, more than 60 percent would post romantic messages on their
significant other's Facebook wall. When the relationship ends, more than half of those surveyed
immediately update their status to single, which automatically sends out a notification to their friend list
to start the dating cycle over again.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of

"What we’re seeing in Australia, in a completely different environment, are fires that are approaching
or even exceeding the magnitude of things that we only saw in the most remote forested regions in the
world," said Ross Bradstock, the director of the Center for Environmental Risk Management of
Bushfires at the University of Wollongong in New South Wales. The numbers from Australia dwarf
those from some of the most high-profile fires in recent years. The bushfires in southeastern Australia
this season have burned about eight times as much land as the 2018 fires in California, which covered
nearly two million acres and were the worst in that state’s recorded history.
In Australia's history, most bad fire seasons have coincided with the warming of an El Nino pattern. But
that is not the case this time, showing how much this season stands out and the danger the country faces
with more unpredictable weather patterns in the future. "While scientists have long predicted that climate
change would bring longer and more intense fire seasons", Dr. Bradstock said, "Under his projections,
Australia would not have seen this kind of devastation for another 40 to 50 years".
“I guess I’m as shocked as anyone about what’s unfolding and, probably, like everyone else who's
involved and affected, we’ll very quickly recalibrate thinking about what we're doing,” he said.
Recalibrating means expecting these phenomenal fires to continue to occur, particularly as Australia’s
drought shows few signs of ending and temperatures are expected to continue to climb after the warmest
decade on record.
"We would be extremely foolish, given all the evidence and the magnitude of this event, to just laugh it
off as a one-off phenomenon,” Dr. Bradstock said. "I think we have to get ready to deal with a season
like this again in the not-too-distant future."

An education pioneer born into rural poverty in Nepal has opened 30 schools in a bid to boost
prospects for his country’s children.
The World Bank ranks Nepal as the globe's 31st poorest country, with almost 10 million people
living on daily incomes between £1.48 and £2.50. Many rural villages remain unreached by government
schooling and adult literacy stood at just 60 percent in 2011. Surya Karki and his charity United World
Schools Nepal (UWS) are tackling high illiteracy and poverty rates by funding and improving education.
The first school opened in 2015. Since then 92 percent of children have completed primary
education, which finishes at age eight, and continued into secondary education with UWS schools, in
comparison to 39 percent of students continuing education who attended government schools.
Mr Karki was born into poverty in rural Nepal. Speaking to the Telegraph he said: "School is the
only solution to the poverty cycle that we live in. I was raised by a single mother in a male- dominated
society. The school that I went to was approximately two hours walk away. My house was on top of a
hill and my mother had to drag me across rivers. We used to walk 10 miles a day. The schooling was
really bad."
Karki’s mother was a firm believer in education, and at age eight Karki secured a scholarship to
study in the capital, Kathmandu. From there he won scholarships and completed Master’s degrees in
China and the United States. He returned to Nepal in 2015 and decided to stay and develop the education
system. Karki said: "Inequalities in a country can only be decreased if there is access to knowledge.”
The devastating earthquake in 2015 damaged 9,300 schools, displacing hundreds of thousands of
families and pushing 700,000 people into poverty. As of January 2018, only 2,891 schools had been
rebuilt. Karki said: "We came at a crucial time, where we could redo or undo what had been done badly.
Education was really bad in terms of infrastructure, quality of teachers and training. It was an opportunity
for us to really make things better.”
UWS Nepal has so far built 30 schools and has seven more in construction. The schools run between
10 am and 3:30 am and have an 86 percent average attendance rate, which Karki says is almost double
the attendance rate for government schools in the vicinity. Sexual health classes are taught to the children
in the later years.

of the questions.
It is an undeniable fact that a woman’s place was once in the home. In the past, women were merely
required to fulfill the role of mother and housewife. Today, this situation has changed tremendously. If
a woman possesses the attributes and qualities of her male counterpart, she will definitely be given equal
opportunities in the career world without much bias. Therefore, women began to make the scene and,
eventually, there was a steady flow of women leaving their homes. A certain vacuum or emptiness was
thus created in the households. No more could the husbands turn to their wives after a hard day's work.
Society marveled at the ability of women, but it also suffered at the realization of the important role that
women play in their homes. Should women be allowed to work after marriage then? The answer is
undoubtedly positive although this issue is highly debatable in terms of the nature of the professions
involved. If a woman pursues her career but is at the same time able to care for her home and children,
one simply cannot find any reason why she should not be allowed to do so.
A woman's influence is greatly needed in the home, on the children. What a child needs most is his
mother’s care because how the child is molded depends greatly on her. It is a real pity that women who
leave their homes solely in search of a career seldom give a thought to this. The children, being helpless
and dependent creatures, may have nobody to turn to at home, except servants or relatives. With the
mother’s back only after a hard day’s toil, the children surely do not get much attention.
Whether a woman should continue to work after marriage would depend on the nature of her
profession. It is a waste of resources if women, after seeking higher education, immediately abandon
their careers after matrimony. A woman's effort can also contribute to the well-being and development
of society. In the Malaysian context, a teacher is only required to work a five- day week with term
holidays every now and then. Moreover, she is in school for only half of the day. The other half of the
day can be devoted to her home. A teacher, besides educating society, can fulfill the role of both mother
and housewife. There are many other careers like those of nurses, clerks and typists where women can
fulfill the double role.
Nevertheless, there are many professions which would not be advisable for women to indulge in
after marriage. A public relations officer spends almost three-quarters of her time in her career. She has
heavy tasks to shoulder which might require her to entertain others till odd hours at night. Women who
venture into the business world should think twice before plunging into it. It would be beyond their
means to fulfill two demanding roles at the same time.
As it is, a woman's most important responsibility still lies in her home. Without her around in the
house, one just cannot bear to think of the consequences. Unless and until she can fulfill the basic role
of a housewife and mother, she should not make a career her sole responsibility.

Throughout history, the central role of women in society has ensured the stability, progress and
long-term development of nations. Globally, women comprise 43 percent of the world's agricultural
labor force - rising to 70 percent in some countries. For instance, across Africa, 80 percent of agricultural
production comes from small farmers, most of whom are rural women. It’s widely accepted that
agriculture can be the engine of growth and poverty reduction in developing nations. Women, notably
mothers, play the largest role in decisionmaking about family meal planning and diet. And, women self-
report more often their initiative in preserving child health and nutrition.
Women are the primary caretakers of children and elders in every country of the world. International
studies demonstrate that when the economy and political organization of a society change, women take
the lead in helping the family adjust to new realities and challenges. They are likely to be the prime
initiator of outside assistance, and play an important role in facilitating (or hindering) changes in family
life.
The contribution of women to a society’s transition from pre-literate to literate likewise is
undeniable. Basic education is the key to a nation’s ability to develop and achieve sustainability targets.
Research has shown that education can improve agricultural productivity, enhance the status of girls and
women, reduce population growth rates, enhance environmental protection, and widely raise the
standard of living.
Today, the median female share of the global workforce is 45.4 percent. Women’s formal and
informal labor can transform a community from a relatively autonomous society to a participant in the
national economy. Despite significant obstacles, women’s small businesses in rural developing
communities not only can be an extended family's lifeline, but can form a networked economic
foundation for future generations. The role of women in the urban and rural workforce has expanded
exponentially in recent decades.

WWF, in full World Wide Fund for Nature, is an international organization committed to the
conservation of the environment. In North America, it is called the World Wildlife Fund.
In 1960, a group of British naturalists—most notably biologist Sir Julian Huxley, artist and
conservationist Peter Scott, and ornithologists Guy Mountfort and Max Nicholson— led an effort to
establish an organization that protected endangered species and their habitats. The following year the
World Wildlife Fund was founded; the international name was subsequently changed to World Wide
Fund for Nature in 1989, although in the United States and Canada it retained the founding name. The
organization's distinctive panda logo was created by Scott. In the face of growing environmental threats
over the ensuing years, the WWF’s activities expanded in scope. Today its mission statement is
threefold: to conserve the world’s biological diversity, to ensure that the use of renewable natural
resources is sustainable, and to promote the reduction of pollution and of wasteful consumption. The
organization has long included both conservationists and business people with the intention of
combining solid scientific data with well-managed action. It also seeks cooperation between non-
governmental organizations, local governments, and local populations. The WWF works closely with
the World Conservation Union and has formed partnerships with the United Nations, the World Bank,
and the European Union.
The WWF provides money for conservation initiatives around the world. These include programs
focused on individual species, forests, and freshwater, and marine issues as well as climate change and
responsible international trade. The group has also been involved in efforts to provide a safe and
sustainable habitat for the world's peoples, both urban and rural, including clean water, clean air,
healthful food, and rewarding recreation areas. Among the WWF’s notable achievements is its use of
debt-for-nature swaps, in which an organization buys some of a country’s foreign debt at a discount,
converts the money to local currency, and then uses it to finance conservation efforts. The WWF’s first
successful debt-for-nature swap took place in 1987 in Ecuador.
At the beginning of the 21st century, the WWF was active in more than 100 countries and had more than
five million supporters. The organization’s international headquarters are in Gland, Switz., and it has
more than 90 offices around the world.

The Saola, a type of bovine that is native to the Truong Son mountain range in Vietnam’s central region
and is listed as endangered, has been unveiled as the official mascot for the upcoming SEA Games and
ASEAN PARA Games 11.
The Saola design, created by Hanoi artist Ngo Xuan Khoi, was declared winner in the mascot category.
The work is an animated depiction of Saola, one of the rarest mammals on Earth found in the Truong
Son Mountain Range in central Vietnam. Khoi said he chose the Saola because it is an endangered
animal that was first discovered in Vietnam in 1992.
According to the event’s organisers, the reason for choosing Saola as mascot is primarily to promote
biodiversity throughout the country as it is a rare animal listed in the Vietnamese Red Book. Saola
represents a friendly, flexible, and nimble character that serves to perfectly demonstrate the
characteristics needed when engaging in sporting activities.
Saolas are one of the rarest and most threatened mammals on the planet. Often called the Asian unicorn,
little is known about the enigmatic Saola in the two decades since its discovery. None exist in captivity
and this rarely-seen mammal is already critically endangered. Scientists have categorically documented
Saola in the wild on only four occasions to date.
Saolas are recognized by two parallel horns with sharp ends, which can reach 20 inches in length and
are found on both males and females. Meaning “spindle horns" in Vietnamese, they are a cousin of cattle
but resemble an antelope. Saola have striking white markings on the face and large maxillary glands on
the muzzle, which could be used to mark territory or attract mates. They are found only in the Annamite
Mountains of Vietnam and Laos.

III. GRAMMAR (Relative clauses)

I. Định nghĩa
Mệnh đề quan hệ là mệnh đề phụ được nối với mệnh đề chính bởi các đại từ quan hệ (who, whom,
whose, which, that) hay các trạng từ quan hệ như (where, when, why). Mệnh đề quan hệ đứng ngay đằng
sau danh từ, đại từ trong mệnh đề chính để bổ sung ý nghĩa cho danh từ, đại từ ấy, phân biệt danh từ, đại
từ ấy với các danh từ đại từ khác. Chức năng của nó giống như một tính từ, do vậy nó còn được gọi là
mệnh đề tính ngữ.
II. Các loại đại từ quan hệ
1. WHO: Là đại từ quan hệ thay thế cho danh từ chỉ người, đứng sau danh từ chỉ người để làm chủ ngữ
(subject) hoặc tân ngữ (object) cho động từ đứng sau nó. Theo sau who là chủ ngữ hoặc là động từ.
Ví dụ: The man who is waiting for the bus is my English teacher.
=> (theo sau who là động từ => who đóng vai trò làm chủ ngữ)
The man who I met on the bus yesterday is Phuong’s father.
=> (theo sau who là chủ ngữ => who đóng vai trò làm tân ngữ)
2. WHOM: Là đại từ quan hệ thay thế cho danh từ chỉ người, đứng sau danh từ chỉ người để làm tân
ngữ (object) cho động từ đứng sau nó. Theo sau whom là chủ ngữ.
Ví dụ: The man who(m) I met on the bus yesterday is Phuong’s father.
=> (theo sau whom là chủ ngữ => whom đóng vai trò làm tân ngữ)
NHƯ VẬY:
Cả who và whom đều là đại từ quan hệ thay thế cho danh từ chỉ người, đứng sau danh từ chỉ người.
Nhưng who làm cả chủ ngữ và tân ngữ cho động từ đứng sau nó, còn whom chỉ làm tân ngữ cho động
từ sau nó mà thôi.
3. WHICH: Là đại từ quan hệ chỉ vật, sự vật, sự việc làm chủ ngữ hoặc tân ngữ cho động từ sau nó.
Theo sau which có thể là một động từ hoặc một chủ ngữ.
Ví dụ: I am reading the book which was written by a famous writer.
=> (theo sau which là động từ => which đóng vai trò làm chủ ngữ)
I am reading the book which you gave me on my birthday.
=> (theo sau which là chủ ngữ => which đóng vai trò làm tân ngữ)
4. THAT: Là đại từ quan hệ chỉ cả người lẫn vật, có thể được dùng thay cho Who, Whom, Which trong
mệnh đề quan hệ thuộc loại Restricted Clause (Mệnh đề xác định)
4.1. Luôn dùng "that" trong những trường hợp sau:
+ dùng that thay thế cho những danh từ chỉ cả người lẫn vật
Ví dụ: I saw her and her dog that were walking in the park.
+ dùng that sau các đại từ bất định (someone/ somebody, no one/ nobody, everyone/ everybody, anyone/
anybody; something, everything, anything, nothing) hoặc sau (all/ much/ none, little...)
Ví dụ: My father is the one that I admire most.
All that is mine is yours.
+ dùng that sau dạng so sánh nhất
Ví dụ: My mother is the most beautiful woman that I have ever known.
+ dùng that sau các từ chỉ thứ tự như: first, second, next,...last, only
Ví dụ: You are the only person that I can believe.
+ dùng that trong cấu trúc câu nhấn mạnh
It + be + thành phần nhấn mạnh + that + s + V
Ví dụ: It was the book that my mother bought me last week.
It is you that I am looking for.
+ dùng that trong cấu trúc: It is/was not until... that
It is/was not until + time/time clause + that + s + V
(phải mãi tới khi... thì)
Ví dụ: It was not until he was 40 that he got married.
4.2. Không được dùng that trong những trường hợp sau:
+ không dùng that sau dấu phẩy
Ví dụ: She couldn't go to the party, that makes me sad.
A B C D
HD: (trong câu này sai ở c vì that không được dùng sau dấu phẩy (,) nên ta sửa lại bằng cách đổi that
thành which)
+ không dùng that sau giới từ
Ví dụ: The music to that I am listening is very sweet and gentle.
A B C D
HD: (trong câu này sai ở B vì that không được dùng sau giới từ (to) nên ta sửa lại bằng cách đổi to that
thành to which)
5. WHOSE: Là đại từ quan hệ chỉ sở hữu. Whose đứng sau danh từ chỉ người hoặc vật và thay cho tính
từ sở hữu trước danh từ. Whose luôn đi kèm với một danh từ.
Ví dụ: I am studying with Tom whose father is a famous doctor.
III. Cách kết hợp câu dùng đại từ quan hệ

Để kết hợp hai câu thành một câu dùng đại từ quan hệ, ta thực hiện theo các bước sau:
+ Bước 1: Xác định thành phần giống nhau giữa hai mệnh đề
+ Bước 2: Đặt đại từ quan hệ ngay sau từ mà nó thay thế ờ mệnh đề thứ nhất rồi viết mệnh đề thứ hai
trước xong mới viết tới mệnh đề thứ nhất.
+ Bước 3: Đại từ quan hệ thay thế cho từ gì ở mệnh đề thứ 2 thì bỏ từ ấy đi.
Ví dụ 1: The man works in the hospital. I told you about him.
HD: Ta thấy thành phần giống nhau giữa 2 mệnh đề này là "the man" và "him"
The man là danh từ chỉ người nên ta dùng đại từ quan hệ who hoặc whom và đặt ngay sau the
man, sau đó ta viết mệnh đề thứ 2 (bỏ him) xong quay lại viết phần còn lại của mệnh đề thứ
nhất.
=>The man who(m) I told you about works in the hospital.
Ví dụ 2: The man was injured in the accident. He is now in hospital.
Ta thấy thành phấn giống nhau giữa 2 mệnh đề này là "the man" và "he"
He là chủ ngữ của mệnh đề thứ 2 nên ta phải dùng đại từ quan hệ who và đặt ngay sau the man,
sau đó ta viết phần còn lại của mệnh đề thứ nhất xong mới viết sang mệnh đề thứ hai (bỏ he)
=>The man who was injuried in the accident is now in hospital.
Lưu ý: Câu này không thể viết là The man who is now in hospital was injured in the accident, vì
theo thứ tự của hành động thì hành động bị thương phải xảy ra trước hành động vào viện.
IV. Các loại mệnh đề quan hệ: có ba loại mệnh đề quan hệ

1. Mệnh đề quan hệ xác định (restrictive relative clause): Mệnh đề quan hệ xác định dùng để bổ nghĩa
cho danh từ đứng trước, là bộ phận quan trọng của câu, nếu bỏ đi thì mệnh đề chính không có nghĩa rõ
ràng.
Ví dụ: The girl who is wearing the blue dress is my sister.
The book which I borrowed from you is very interesting.
2. Mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định (non-restrictive relative clause)
• Mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định dùng để bổ nghĩa cho danh từ đứng trước, là phần giải thích thêm,
nếu bỏ đi thì mệnh đề chính vẫn còn nghĩa rõ ràng.
• Mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định thường được ngăn với mệnh đề chính bởi các dấu phẩy. Danh từ
đứng trước thường là tên riêng hoặc trước các danh từ thường có các từ như: this, that, these, those,
my, his, her, your, our, their... đứng trước.
• Không được dùng that trong mệnh đề không xác định.
Ví dụ: Peter, who is my boyfriend, is very handsome and intelligent.
My father, who is 50 years old, is a doctor.
3. Mệnh đề quan hệ nối tiếp: Mệnh đề quan hệ nối tiếp dùng để giải thích cả một câu, trường hợp này
chỉ dùng đại từ quan hệ which và dùng dấu phẩy để tách hai mệnh đề. Mệnh đề này luôn đứng ở cuối
câu.
Ví dụ: He sent me a bunch of flowers, which made me surprised.

Online lectures are the first choice in the context of long-lasting and complicated Covid-19 pandemic
given their advantages. However, teachers say distance learning has many issues which need to be solved
to achieve the set goals.
The biggest advantage of online classes is that all materials, discussion questions and tests are stored on
an online platform; therefore, students can easily access these contents anytime and anywhere. Lectures
will be broadcast live for many students at the same time and could be recorded to be replayed.
Nevertheless, talking to Hanoitimes, Dao Van Diep, a teacher of Hanoi-based Lomonosov My Dinh
Primary School pointed out some disadvantages of online classes.
"The most outstanding one is that in the online environment, teachers cannot remind their students, and
there is not any specific timetable so that students can follow", Diep said. "In addition, there are some
other barriers such as equipment, transmission lines, interactions between learners and teachers. As
students are not familiar with the online method, it's hard to get their focus on the lecture which
sometimes is interrupted due to poor transmission speed."
"The biggest shortcoming of online classes is the way of testing and evaluating students. I am struggling
to find out what kind of test should be used to best assess my students. When we let students take the
test from a distance, it is very difficult to ensure they do the test honestly. We need the instructions from
the Ministry of Education and Training on this matter," Diep said.
In a phone interview with Hanoitimes, Tran Thi Hai Yen, managing director of Alpha School in Hanoi
said that her school has made a big investment in online teaching infrastructure and developed an online
teaching plan during the Covid-19 pandemic. However, since the municipal Department of Education
and Training has prohibited schools from collecting tuition fees, it is difficult to implement because
schools with paid education do not have backup funding for free teaching.

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has upended family life around the world. School
closures, working remotely, physical distancing — it’s a lot for parents to navigate. Robert Jenkins,
UNICEF’s Global Chief of Education, offers some tips to help keep children’s education on track while
they’re staying home.
First, plan a routine together. Try to establish a routine that factors in age-appropriate education
programmes that can be followed online, on the television or through the radio. Also, factor in play time
and time for reading. Use everyday activities as learning opportunities for your children. Although
establishing a routine and structure is critically important for children and young people, in these times
you may notice your children need some level of flexibility. If your child seems restless and agitated
when you’re trying to follow an online learning programme with them, flip to a more active option. Do
not forget that planning and doing house chores together safely is great for development of fine and
gross motor functions.
Next, have open conversations. Encourage your children to ask questions and express their feelings with
you. Remember that your child may have different reactions to stress, so be patient and understanding.
Start by inviting your child to talk about the issue. Find out how much they already know and follow
their lead. Discuss good hygiene practices. You can use everyday moments to reinforce the importance
of things like regular and thorough handwashing. Make sure you are in a safe environment and allow
your child to talk freely. Drawing, stories and other activities may help to open a discussion.
Last, protect children online. Digital platforms provide an opportunity for children to keep learning, take
part in play and keep in touch with their friends. But increased access online brings heightened risks for
children's safety, protection and privacy. Discuss the internet with your children so that they know how
it works, what they need to be aware of, and what appropriate behavior looks like on the platforms they
use, such as video calls.

and college students have spent longer periods at home than in school. Many educationalists and parents
have been calling for children to go back to the classroom. There is the perception that no form of digital
learning experience can surpass the classroom experience.
A study called "Online Education Platforms Scale College STEM Instruction With Equivalent
Outcomes at Lower Cost” has found that students learned just as much in online STEM (science,
technology, engineering and mathematics) college courses when compared to traditional classroom
settings. The reason for the STEM focus is due to a current shortage of highly skilled professionals in
these areas. These are sectors seen as important for global recovery.
In making this point for the relative success of e-learning, Cornell University researchers say that
online learning can also be delivered at a fraction of the cost of the traditional school setting (around an
80 percent reduction, on average). Similar savings (albeit only 20 percent) can be made from a hybrid
approach. The study used some 300 students based in Russia. To evaluate the data, scientists the
researchers developed a controlled, randomized trial to test if students learned as much in online classes
compared with traditional in-person classes. It was found that final exam scores did not differ
significantly among the three versions. Another benefit is where activity-based online learning, rather
than lecture-based, enhances student creativity.
Despite the equivalency in learning outcomes, there are other aspects of attending school or college
that cannot be adequately catered for online. It was discovered that online students were less satisfied
with their course experience compared to students in in-person and blended classes.

Deforestation is the clearing, destroying, or otherwise removal of trees through deliberate, natural
or accidental means. It can occur in any area densely populated by trees and other plant life, but the
majority of it is currently happening in the Amazon rainforest. The loss of trees and other vegetation can
cause climate change, desertification, soil erosion, fewer crops, flooding, increased greenhouse gases in
the atmosphere, and a host of problems for indigenous people.
Deforestation occurs for a number of reasons, including: farming, mostly cattle due to its quick
turnaround; and logging for materials and development. It has been happening for thousands of years,
arguably since man began converting from hunter/ gatherer to agricultural-based societies, and required
larger, unobstructed tracks of land to accommodate cattle, crops, and housing. It was only after the onset
of the modern era that it became an epidemic.
One of the most dangerous and unsettling effects of deforestation is the loss of animal and plant
species due to their loss of habitat; not only do we lose those known to us, but also those unknown,
potentially an even greater loss. Seventy percent of Earth’s land animals and plants live in forests, and
many cannot survive the deforestation that destroys their homes. The trees of the rainforest that provide
shelter for some species also provide the canopy that regulates the temperature, a necessity for many
others. Its removal through deforestation would allow a more drastic temperature variation from day to
night, much like a desert, which could prove fatal for current inhabitants.
In addition to the loss of habitat, the lack of trees also allows a greater amount of greenhouse gases
to be released into the atmosphere. Presently, the tropical rainforests of South America are responsible
for 20% of Earth’s oxygen and they are disappearing at a rate of 4 hectares a decade. If these rates are
not stopped and reversed, the consequences will become even more severe.
The trees also help control the level of water in the atmosphere by helping to regulate the water
cycle. With fewer trees left, due to deforestation, there is less water in the air to be returned to the soil.
In turn, this causes dryer soil and the inability to grow crops, an ironic twist when considering the fact
that 80% of deforestation comes from small-scale agriculture and cattle ranching.
Further effects of deforestation include soil erosion and coastal flooding. In addition to their
previously mentioned roles, trees also function to retain water and topsoil, which provides the rich
nutrients to sustain additional forest life. Without them, the soil erodes and washes away, causing
farmers to move on and perpetuate the cycle. The barren land which is left behind in the wake of these
unsustainable agricultural practices is then more susceptible to flooding, specifically in coastal regions.
Coastal vegetation lessens the impact of waves and winds associated with a storm surge. Without this
vegetation, coastal villages are susceptible to damaging floods.

the questions.
The dustbin is full to the top with colored plastic. In fact, it is so full that it is difficult to put the lid
on. But the Strauss family, who own this dirty, old dustbin, are very proud of it. Why? Because it
contains all the family’s rubbish for a whole year!
Two years ago, this family read an article about plastic bags and how they cause pollution and harm
sea creatures. They decided to stop using plastic bags completely. Now, when they buy food, they reuse
their own bags each time. They recycle as much as they can - glass bottles, plastic bottles, paper,
cardboard, cans - and they simply do not buy things if they cannot recycle the packaging
The family is keeping a record of their lifestyle on their website. They hope that other people will
read it and reduce their waste. If everyone recycled a bit more, it would make the environment better.

The main idea behind ecotourism is to educate tourists about conservation efforts and research
developments in fragile natural areas, while also offering travelers a chance to experience those areas
firsthand. Unfortunately, when those fragile areas start to receive a lot of traffic from tourists, it can
negatively impact their ecosystems.
Tourism inevitably leads to development - even in ecotourism efforts. When natural areas become
popular in the travel industry, they usually become the site of hotels, excavations and other tourist
industry activities. These activities sometimes displace indigenous groups and local people from their
homelands, which not only damages the integrity of those local communities, but prevents its members
from benefiting from the economic benefits of a growing tourism industry.
On top of ecotourism’s potential impacts on locals, the industry can also take a toll on surrounding
wildlife. It’s ironic, given that ecotourism aims to educate ecotourists and promote the conservation of
natural habitats, but, for some species, the increased presence of humans may by default negatively
impact their natural behaviors. Increased foot traffic can also affect soil quality and plant life in general,
damaging the area's overall ecosystem.
Finally, not all travel organizations that market themselves as ecotourist programs are actually
environmentally friendly. These organizations know ecotourism is growing in popularity and may take
advantage of that fact by parading as ecotouristic when in reality they ignore eco-friendly practices. For
that reason, it’s important that would-be ecotourists do their homework before giving an organization
their business.

The biggest difference between an eco-lodge and a green hotel is the setting in which you’ll find
them. Eco lodges tend to be more remote, located in relatively pristine natural environments such as
beaches, jungles and mountains. Green hotels, on the other hand, are more often associated with cities
and towns.
Eco lodges and green hotels both emphasize elements such as environmental responsibility and
minimizing negative impact. The best ones offer renewable energy sources, recycling services, eco-
friendly toiletries, energy-efficient lighting, locally sourced food, organic linens and towels, non-toxic
cleaning supplies, non-disposable dishes, water conservation methods and various other sustainability-
focused initiatives.
But eco lodges tend to be more dependent on the natural environment than green hotels. They are
also generally more active in nature and wildlife conservation, more focused on educating visitors about
the flora and fauna of local ecosystems, and more deeply connected with the area’s indigenous culture
(whose influence is often incorporated into the lodge's decor and restaurant menu).
The best eco lodges also work to ensure positive relationships with the local people. They train and
employ them at fair wages, take part in community development initiatives, offer activities that help
visitors conserve and appreciate local customs, and contribute to the local economy. In this way, they
reinforce the notion of ecotourism as a more sustainable long-term business model than altering or
destroying habitats for quick financial gains.

Australia is no stranger to wildfires, but this season has been unprecedented in scale and intensity -
and the summer is far from over. So far at least 28 people have died in blazes that have swept the country,
more than 3,000 homes have been destroyed and roughly 7.3 million hectares (17.9 million acres) of
land have been burnt.
So what has caused the blazes which have devastated such huge swathes of the country? Australia's
deadly fires have been fueled by a combination of extreme heat, prolonged drought and strong winds.
The country is in the grip of a heatwave, with record-breaking temperatures over the last three months.
In mid-December, the nation saw the hottest day in history - the average temperature was 41.9 degrees
Celsius. These conditions, which show few signs of abating in the next few weeks, have been
accompanied by brisk winds which fan the flames and push the smoke across Australia's major cities.
Authorities say that wind speeds have been recorded at 60 miles per hour. All this follows the country's
driest spring since records began 120 years ago, with much of New South Wales and Queensland
experiencing rainfall shortfalls since early 2017. Trees, shrubs and grasslands have turned into the
perfect tinder for flames.
Bushfires are a regular feature in Australia’s calendar - often triggered by natural causes such as
lightning strikes - and cannot be blamed on climate change or rising greenhouse gas emissions alone.
But experts say that the changing climate is the key to understanding the ferocity of this year's blazes -
hotter, drier conditions are making the country's fire season longer and much more dangerous. And
Australia’s climate is definitely changing. According to the country’s Bureau of Meteorology,
temperatures have already risen by more than one degree Celsius since 1920 - with much of the increase
taking place since 1950.
So far the response has been largely reactive - aimed at evacuating residents to safety and stopping
the blazes from spreading. Australia relies on hundreds of thousands of volunteer firefighters, who have
been working around the clock to try and bring the fires under control for months. But in the long term,
experts have said that there should be a review of building standards in bushfire zones to create resilient
homes and larger buffer zones between the bush and properties.

A different way to approach mistakes is to embrace them. By coming to terms with the fact that
mistakes are part of the learning process, you can see them as opportunities. This mindset has been
shown to support learning. Get in this frame of mind and learn from your mistakes.
Teachers with this mindset provide learning tasks where students have some basic guidelines to
follow rather than step-by-step instructions. Students with this mindset tend to engage in active learning
methods and study skills. The idea that mistakes are okay frees you to actively explore a topic or task.
When you do make a mistake, reminding yourself that mistakes are a natural part of learning can help
prevent negative emotions from creeping in. You can focus on the mistake as information about what
you know, and what you need to learn more about.
Embracing mistakes has benefits besides helping to control negative emotions. Mistakes require the
generation of a solution. This prompts the investigation of different aspects of the task or topic to find a
solution. In this way, you may learn things that you wouldn’t have if you were merely following rigid
instructions. In the end, you will have a better overall understanding of a task or topic. You will be more
likely to adapt your knowledge and get a correct answer if you are asked a related but different question
on a test.
(Adapted from https://www.globalcognition.org/)

A. Accepting mistakes in learning B. Neglecting mistakes in class

B. Students who admit mistakes are inevitable tend to learn actively and effectively.
C. Students shouldn’t have negative emotions if they make mistakes.
D. Mistakes can be clues of your strength and weakness.
34. The phrase “creeping in” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. spreading B. ending C. continuing D. happening
35. According to paragraph 3, what is the benefit of embracing mistakes?
A. People are required to find a solution to control negative emotions.
B. People may not learn valuable things if they don’t follow rigid instructions.
C. People have to think of another way to solve the task and will understand it completely.
D. People are unable to answer the test if they are asked a related but different question.
As a strategy to contain potentially infected people and prevent the virus from spreading further,
businesses and schools will heavily rely on the internet to keep business running. From online learning
to telecommuting, many aspects of our daily lives that used to involve face-to-face contact will be moved
to cyberspace. This shift to internet-based work presents advantages, challenges, and potentially a
detriment to the education and business communities.
For some businesses, telecommuting can be a boon for their bottom line. Imagine a company that
can run its entire operation staffed by workers who work from home. No need to lease large office
spaces. No need for long commutes. Flexible hours and working in your pajamas (or anything you want
to wear). With telecommuting, you can hire a geographically diverse group of employees without
worrying about where to house or relocate them.
In terms of education, online learning also comes with some advantages. For a long time, schools
and colleges have resisted online instruction, and institutions that do have been regarded as inferior.
However, with a rapidly spreading virus and a campus full of people in close contact, schools have no
choice but to turn to online classes as an alternative, albeit temporary, solution. By letting students learn
from home, colleges can allow more students to take the same class simultaneously, while students who
missed lectures for any reason can make up with video streaming.
On the other hand, not everything can be solved by moving online. Businesses in personal services,
retail, and food and beverage businesses will suffer under this crisis, as personal interaction is still an
essential part of those industries. Although, I suspect delivery platforms such as Amazon and UberEats
are likely to see a boom in business as people are confined to their homes.
Meanwhile, although some classes can be successfully taught online, specific disciplines are
impossible to instruct through the internet. From lab work for chemistry to the arts, these classes must
be conducted in person. The closing of campuses would also negatively impact students, who paid
thousands of dollars to colleges for room and board. Worse, for many international scholars, campus
closures might mean they have nowhere to go.
